American Idol attempts to pervert as vanity this display of profound humility -- one expressed in an impromptu dramatic flourish! Imagine her now-famous laugh: articulated.

Are you serious? OK. I might agree if she had also thanked the members of her group.

Rose didn't sing Don't Stop.

But yes, it was terrible last night.

It's one thing to change it up a bit like La Nicks; it's quite another to completely forget you rlines & start humming or shove a "ooooh" or a "lalala" in there instead.

Not that I'm a big fan of Stevie's versions...
